ASKING OUT BEAUTIFUL/HANDSOME UNI TUTORS
Big day today guys + girls. Been debating asking out one of my tutors (she's not that much older than myself and beautiful and smart). Although I'd talked to her quite a few times I had no idea whether or not she was single. I don't have facebook so i couldn't check. So i got to thinking, her mum takes one of my other lectures. Today was our last lecture and I went up to thank her (the mum - her classes are excellent also, so I made a point of being sincere). She brings up her daughter and I smoothy (...I am smooth) ask if she is single.
Ask mum who is very qualified and intelligent professor if beautiful young daughter is single - probably not my best plan.
Anyways she starts laughing and tells me she is moving interstate with her boyfriend (thus not single) and my tail just dropped. Then she continues to say she has another daughter about my age called (we'll call her daughter #2 [d2]) and asks if I have met her. I start laughing and say I haven't and then thank her again and leave. What a great response by the mum though! I was scared I would come across as disrespectful but she was a champion.
Unfortunatley I still have one more class tomorrow with the tutor and she'll know I asked the mum - could be awkward but whatever. Gotta try these things some times.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? Lemmeknow

I haven't been in that situation, but I did once participate in a psychology study (as all psych students eventually have to do for course points) conducted by this gorgeous PhD student. I died a little inside after meeting her and ended up coming back and doing the optional part 2. At the end of the study I straight up told her that I thought she was super pretty and that I came back to part 2 of the study partly for that reason. She was totally caught off guard, she laughed and said I was really sweet.
Should have proposed.
Will remember forever.
@safari93 @BlindEagle I think 'incompatible sexual orientations' needs its own thread. Sigh.
Can we talk about lecturers here as well? I've had lecturers (mostly guest lecturers) who were pretty cute but for all of semester 1 this year I was a tiny bit in love with one of my lecturers who was also the coordinator for that unit. She was super cute and kinda dorky in an adorable way and I went to every single one of her lectures - even though they were at 9am on a Monday.
I had end-of-semester drinks in a small group with one of my tutors once and had to drive him home after due to a bus strike that would've left him stranded. He'd been talking about a short film he'd made (he was my screen studies tutor and an honours student, so pretty young) and invited me up to watch it. It wasn't til we were both alone in the dark watching a movie that we realised it was pretty inappropriate haha.
Aww @tsnyder go you for asking!
Im also the admire from afar and make so many personal jokes with friends about loving/being obsessed with the person that by the end of it its too awkward to continue having a lil crush on them type haha
Also lol. No that daughter is taken but you can have my other one hahahhahaah
Haha this is all pretty great.
Back in my uni days, I had a major jones for my Literature lecturer. She was smart and sassy and kinda looked like Mena Suvari (only clothed and not molting rose petals everywhere). I obviously enrolled in Lit again when the next year rolled around, but not only was she not teaching that unit, but she was replaced by her jerk of a husband. I changed my major after that haha.
I'm glad to hear we've all had similar experiences! Billy that's an excellent reason to change a major!
hahaha @Sophie-RO that's a sweet storyI'm
@KitKat the class went well, she knew what was up. The mum definitely told her.
Aw glad the situation worked out well for you, even if she's not single... I remember a story from a friend that she saved her tutors contacts in her email address book as "Hot Tutor" and only realised later that the email sent the contact name along with the address so every time she had sent him an email it had included "Hot tutor <name@email.com>".. OUCH, heaps less cool than your approach!
*she is moving interstate (as in, the daughter is moving interstate)
